well, yeah, previously I had an issue where the database crashed during a heavy concurrent pl/sh based load. However the problems went away when I refactored the code. Anyways, I looked at the code and couldn't see anything obviously wrong so who knows? All I know is my production database is exploding continuously and I'm looking for answers. The only other extension in heavy use on this servers is postgres_fdw. The other database on the cluster is fine, which kind of suggests we are not facing clog or WAL type problems. After last night, I rebuilt the cluster, turning on checksums, turning on synchronous commit (it was off) and added a standby replica. This should help narrow the problem down should it re-occur; if storage is bad (note, other database on same machine is doing 10x write activity and is fine) or something is scribbling on shared memory (my guess here) then checksums should be popped, right? merlin -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
